The best way to think about it is that the Presentation Forms A and B are there for compatibility reasons. Nobody is and nobody should ever use them. The Arabic script as encoded in the Unicode standard is serving more than just Arabic language. So you see on the higher rows of the 0600 block characters that are not used in Arabic language at all. > Best Regards, > -Iven --behdad http://behdad.org/
